Step ➎ Rotate the ribbon take-up core a minimum one
full revolution (from the top to the back of the
printer) to remove most of the slack from the rib-
bon. Verify that the ribbon is wrapping straight
on the ribbon core.
After the media is loaded, hold the ribbon snug
and close the print head. See label and tag (me-
dia) loading, page 13.
Press the FEED button (with the printer power
on) to condition the ribbon. This is to remove
the slack and wrinkles in the ribbon. Repeat un-

wrapping straight on the ribbon core.
